This is an Alaska Hiring Thread.
Take the inter pilot group banter to the internal forum or even better; a coffee shop where you can discuss this stuff as professionals face to face.
We are one pilot group, all our crew badges say Alaska Airlines and in a few weeks we will all be in the same uniform.

The company even failed on this transitional uniform. Something which should be so simple is hard for them. Some will wear navy, some will wear black, some will wear both. And all the pieces may not be ready. The company claims the VX uniform was causing confusion but now we will have about 4 uniform variations going on.

Let’s leave this thread to pilot hiring and discuss other topics elsewhere; preferably face to face.

I am sure I will be derided for this opinion by the frequent “sky is falling posters” but we all have different lives so take every private opinion on this forum with a mountain of salt.

I mostly stay off this forum because I am happy at Alaska, sure we have some improvements (same as every airline contact) that need to be made but overall it’s a good place to hang your hat.

Perhaps if the former CEO of US Air hadn't coined the term "Legacy Carriers" in an effort to further lower pilot pay and benefits post 9/11, the distinction of that phrase wouldn't be confused with how airlines used to be categorized; by their annual revenue. It's a really stupid title to put on a carrier in today's airline world.

It goes back further than that:
Alaska is a Jet Regional
JetBlue is a Jet National
SWA is Major National
Delta is a Major International
Airlines were categorized by the relevance in the country and the world.
No one has really heard of Alaska east of the Rocky Mountains and Alaska only flies jets thus the Jet Regional...
